Regarding the garbage and recycling: Having twice a week garbage pick up is a luxury. Do we really need it all year or can we adjust for winter when our population swells?
I would like to know if the businesses are paying separately for their garbage and recycling since they would logically be the bulk of it.
I live is a small condo assn. where the majority of the owners rent to vacationers by the month. Since I live there all year, I have provided the renters the recycling brochures to the renters and have seen an increase in recycling. The brochures can be found in the local library. The city needs to rev up the recycling with a campaign.
Thank you,

How or where can my complaint go against this vote? Although I recognize that I am a single resident and a recycler, I have absolutely no need for garbage pick up twice a week. In fact, after Reconsidering, Reusing, and then Recycling, I can barely fill one of those trash cans once a month. Additionally, I am a renter and although I have two emails from the home owners going back to January stating that my rent would not go up, my lease is up for renewal and guess what? My ‘rent’ didn’t go up, but my overall monthly costs (which I would refer to as rent) have gone up $35/month due to an increase for trash services. How does this decision benefit the citizens that live here?
Your trash bill did not increase. The city recently switched from billing Stormwater and Garbage directly each month, to billing one time a year on the property tax bill. The total of both residential services is just under $35 a month. It is not an increase, just a change in the billing method. It appears your landlord went from not charging you for garbage and stormwater – to charging you.
